How did we get here?
I feel like I don't know you anymore.
Everything I once knew
has changed.
I don't understand.
All of a sudden,
we're strangers.
Acquaintances.
How did we get here?
Who are you?
Where have you gone?
Why are you hiding?
We used to be so close.
Inseparable.
This distance
is unbearable.
I don't recognize you.
How did we get here?
Was it something I said?
Was it something I did?
Distant is what you've become.
You've pushed me away.
So far away...
That I don't think
there's anything
that can save us.
We've lost it all.
And I've taken a pretty big fall,
that I know I can't
get up from
on my own.
I need you.
How did we get here?
This sounds like it could easily be a real song beyond just poetry. Very well written Lisa. I always am able to depict the emotion in your writing and it's overflowing with it.
